Q: Please allow me to wear my hat upside down

16

I want to wear my hat upside down but the rotate control seems to be fixed so I can't. Please remove this terrible restriction so that I can use hats as they weren't intended! :-) See also the excellent examples in this duplicate question: Let us be more creative with our hat placement

status-completed

user259867

Stop the presses! Hats can be rotated 180 degrees!

I am eager to see how @bjb568 wears his hats after this change :P

Upside down!

6:16 PM

The almost invisible hat I am wearing at present was worth 500 repz. I should try wearing it upside down.

@Inf Why didn't you just place a 50 bounty, instead of 500?

Unihedro

wonders if deleting account removes your hatz

@Unihedro You should try it.

IT'S A TRAP!!!

@TheGuywithTheElfHat I will not be participating on that site any further, so I gave away my repz

Do you have a go-to mantra or favorite expression that you use as an app developer? We are compiling a list and need some feedback. Thanks in advance!

@bjb568 Now that you've learned all calculus in one semester, what will you do in math the rest of HS?

I haven't learned all.

I have another semester to complete BC.

And another year of multivariable.

And I could take stats.

user259867

Oh, your school teaches multivariate. Nice. Do it.

Of course!

How does my new hat look like?

looks good

huh... I can still see a crab sitting on my head here

@JanDvorak More hat than head...

:P

in the meantime please visit my MSE profile

ah. Now I can see the hat I've put on

Have y'all gotten the changes?

@bjb go support meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/280783/…

@JanDvorak I had the changes back when I said "looks good"

user259867

@JanDvorak I saw it as soon as you mentioned it.

@InfiniteRecursion k

oh. blames caching

user259867

I think the Resolution hat criterion is wrong. It should be: delete all but 10 comments from 2014.

6:48 PM

What if I have 11 really popular ones?

user259867

Too bad. Sacrifice one.

@SmokeDetector someone wanna fpu that?

I don't visit my profiles that often to notice small changes...Its just when I wanna change my about me...

uh oh

@JanDvorak Your avatar looks like a d*d* now :P

@ɥʇǝS Sorry, typo :/

>.>

@SmokeDetector fpu

it's ok I guess.

6:51 PM

sounds like you need a hat to go back in time and fix it

@Undo Can you please manually remove the blacklisted user there^? I accidentially tpu'd instead of fpu'd.

@ɥʇǝS I just checked, and if a user is both blacklisted and whitelisted, whitelisted wins.

So it's not too much of a problem.

cool

Thanks!

I was going to post a funny answer that involved a radio button that allows you to select the number of X chromosomes -- but it occurred to me that even that lighthearted solution introduces (non-intended) bias. By standard ordinal usage, one comes before two, and therefore Males are before Females. Didn't expect that. — Lynn Crumbling 1 min ago

@InfiniteRecursion Curious on your thoughts on the question... is it valid UX design (read: you take offense to the bias), or is it just going a bit too far.

To get the "Praying Mantis" hat, you first have to get the Chameleon hat and then use the controls to flip it upside down. Where do I pick up my Eureka hat?

lol :D

/facepalm, obligatory upvote

I'm debating whether to add that into my answer.

Lynn Crumbling

@TheGuywithTheElfHat Eh, it's already CW... might as well, right?

Okay, I'm doing it.

7:50 PM

Is my hat on right?

@bjb568 I think so.

:D

@bjb568 WTH?

@TGMCians hey wanted to chat with you

if you're around

and silence falls

Wanted to apologize for accidentally suspending you for 30 mins yesterday for your inappropriate comment.

I marked the Inappropriate flag as valid, not realizing it would automatically ban-hammer you

sorry about that

I meant merely to dispose of the flag and remind people not to swear. 1 offense and general good behaviour is not worthy of a ban. So again, my apologies :(

very illogical Mr. @Haney :P

I believe it is midnight/1am for TGM right now, so he'll see that message later.

@ɥʇǝS I know right?

cool, anyway wanted to let you all know it wasn't the intended action

until later, cheers all!

8:10 PM

thanks haney

Who are we cheering for?

@Haney Hey no worries, I've done worse.

@bjb568 for the internet

It's not christmas!

It's bashmas!

8:15 PM

No, it's zshmas

fishmas.

My shell is better than your shell >:O

zsh?

that reminded me of good ol' trains we used to have in here.....

that reminded me of good ol' trains we used to have in here.....

8:17 PM

@ɥʇǝS zsh.

yeah, I meant "you use zsh?"

Yep

Yep

Yep

interesting.

8:19 PM

interesting.

I tried fish for a while, but I've been too bashified and I had to give it up.

@bjb568 COPY CAT!

;P

:D

@ɥʇǝS The best part about zsh is that if you replaced your bash with it right now, you wouldn't even notice.

It's basically super-bash.

yeah, I was installing Arch once and I didn't notice a difference.

...that one user, who always break the train!

8:20 PM

(Arch uses zsh by default)

I might give it a try, even if it's only to say I tried :P

@ɥʇǝS I was just wondering, how to ping you :P

:P

typing that first letter

@ɥʇǝS The better tab-completion is what makes it really great for me.

yeah I'm sure.

I've usually done just fine with bash's completion, but git completion sounds really tempting..

anyway, gotta run. later guys!

8:22 PM

@ɥʇǝS is going away...MAKE TRAINS!!

Are we starting at the front or the back of the train?

@DroidDev Pretty much.

@HoboSapiens I like that the user is "Desperate" over that. (With a capital 'D' no less.)

We are so gonna have a train on christmas and new year.

@bjb568 YAY!

With this hat, there'll probably be a few dozen Happy New Year!s that all get starred.

I'm so gonna get that, if I'm not on nightout...
